Markdown Preview Application for Windows [closed]
I have been using nvALT © Brett Terpstra 2010 which has the Markdown preview option for all the notes.
Is there any application on Windows end which has similar preview functionality. I understand that lot converters available but for the ease of use sake I am looking for an application with the similar preview option.
Solution 1:
I created a full-featured Markdown editor for Windows called MarkdownPad (http://markdownpad.com), and it supports full live HTML preview:
MarkdownPad is lightweight (only 1.5 MB, not including the .NET 4 Framework), and offers several great features:
- Everything is customizable. Fonts, colors, sizes, and even the CSS stylesheet of the rendered HTML. The default CSS is beautiful and minimal, and will make your HTML documents look great.
- Easy HTML export. You can export the full document as HTML, or just selected text.
- Distraction-free Mode. This full-screen mode turns your whole monitor into a blank canvas for you to get some serious work done.
- Frequent updates. I'm always improving MarkdownPad, and love hearing feedback from users.
- Built natively for Windows. MarkdownPad was built from the ground up exclusively for Windows. It uses the latest Microsoft .NET 4 and Windows Presentation 4 Frameworks (translation: it's all kinds of shiny on the inside).
And I even wrote this post in MarkdownPad :)
Solution 2:
I use MarkPad. It's free. It's open source. It looks great. And, it's written in WPF (which I love).
Solution 3:
If you use Visual Studio, the Markdown Mode extension is pretty handy for both Markdown syntax highlighting as well as displaying a live preview.
Solution 4:
ResophNotes supports Markdown with preview.
ReText is a Python app that supports Markdown Preview, but Windows doesn't appear to be the main target platform. I got it to work in Windows, but I had to download the icons separately and copy then into one of the app directories in order to get it to work properly.
WriteMonkey also has Markdown support.
Solution 5:
I've written a editor called Markdown Editor.
